Eliot Lipp's Old Tacoma Records Announces the Release of Nunca Duerma's Debut EP 'Dilated'
Published: November 5, 2012
Eliot Lipp's Old Tacoma Records announces the release of Nunca Duerma's debut EP Dilated. The 3-track EP is a collection of sampled-based grooves and layered drums that will resonate on the dance floor while also appealing to the critical listener's sensibilities. Attune to the techniques of chopping and resampling, the Chicago-based beat-maker uses his affinity for hip-hop and expertise of warping to create a complex but appealing set of downtempo, soul-influenced, experimental tracks. Dilated is sure to please both IDM fans and critics alike.
Dilated will be available online at all your favorite outlets on November 6th.

Detroit born, part-time Seattle transplant, Michigan-raised producer Nunca Duerma resides currently in Chicago (the bustling hotbed for Midwest artists, musicians, and other up-and-comers). Nunca Duerma has created his own brand of original, sample-based, hip-hop/electronica; a natural byproduct of his life in the city.
A multi-instrumentalist from a young age, Nunca Duerma (Tahif Attiek) combines elements of traditional hip-hop, jazz, funk, and electronica in a way that elicits instant head-bobbing from even the most apprehensive electronic music listener. Paired with a unique approach to live performance—including live sampling, original productions, lead synths, and frequent collaborations with other artists—Nunca Duerma brings a fresh new image to the live-electronic scene that is likely far ahead of its time.
Meaning “never sleep” in Spanish, Nunca Duerma’s music brings to mind a clear night sky among towering buildings, speeding cars on a busy highway, and streaking trails of light in a time-lapsed photo. A wonderfully modern soundtrack for a city with a sordid history, this Chicago beat maker is well on his way to progressing contemporary electronic music.
